- 🧈 1/2 cup melted butter (for extra richness)
For the Pecan Pie Filling:
- 🌰 1 cup pecans, finely chopped
- 🍯 1/2 cup light corn syrup
- 🧈 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 🍬 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 🍳 1 large egg, beaten
- 🧂 Pinch of salt
For Coating:
- 🍫 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 🧈 1 tbsp coconut oil or shortening
🍴 Instructions
1️⃣ Prepare the Brownie Base:
- Bake the brownies according to the box instructions but use melted butter instead of oil for a richer flavor.
- Let the brownies cool completely, then crumble them into a large bowl.
2️⃣ Make the Pecan Pie Filling:
- In a medium saucepan, combine the pecans, corn syrup, melted butter, brown sugar, egg, and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens (about 5-7 minutes).
- Remove from heat and let the filling cool to room temperature.
3️⃣ Assemble the Bombs:
- Take a small scoop of brownie crumbs and flatten it in your palm. Add about a teaspoon of the pecan pie filling to the center.
- Wrap the brownie around the filling, rolling it into a ball. Repeat with the remaining brownie crumbs and filling.
4️⃣ Chill the Bombs:
- Place the brownie bombs on a lined baking sheet and refrigerate for 1 hour to firm up.
5️⃣ Coat in Chocolate:
- Melt the chocolate chips with the coconut oil in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth.
- Dip each brownie bomb into the melted chocolate, ensuring it’s fully coated. Place back on the lined baking sheet.
6️⃣ Let Them Set:
- Allow the chocolate coating to set at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
7️⃣ Serve & Enjoy:
- Once the chocolate is firm, serve these decadent bombs at your next party or enjoy them as a luxurious treat!
